[[File:HAChart1.png|right|HA]] The Heikin-Ashi chart type is constructed like a regular candlestick chart (except with the new values above). The time series is defined by the user depending on the type of chart desired (daily, hourly, etc.). Instead of using the open-high-low-close (OHLC) bars like standard candlestick charts, the Heikin-Ashi technique uses a modified formula:

There is no difference between order generation on Regular and Heikin-Ashi chart types with regards to Backtesting and Data Playback.
To learn how Intra-Bar Order Generation and Bar Magnifier work on Heiken Ashi Chart Type, see [[Intra-Bar Order Generation, Bar Magnifier on Non-Standard Chart Types|this page]]
====Real-Time simulation====
| Buy next bar at market
| Order is placed on the first tick of the new bar, i.e. on Open of next bar.
| Order is placed on Open of Hiekin Heikin-Ashi bar, when the new tick of this bar is received. Open of the Hiekin Heikin-Ashi bar is not equal to the price of the received tick. HA Open = (HA Open[1] + HA Close[1])/2.
